Are the TurboDB Components freeware?

Yes, the light edition is. It has the full functionality of the pro edition but restricts you to a maximum of three concurrently open tables. Other tools you need for managing your database are free as well: TurboDB Workbench and TurboDB Data Exchange.

Which database format does TurboDB use?

The Turbo Database kernel is a file based database of its own and completely written in Object Pascal. It has its own file format similar to dBase, Paradox and Access. Data exchange with other tools is granted by import and export from and to different text formats and dBase III files. XML import/export is in development. On Windows platforms TurboDB can also import from ODBC data sources. Export to ODBC data sources and a TurboDB ODBC driver are in development.
